Getting to know Wendi Makus

Hi there, I'm Wendi! I'm so glad you are here! If you are ready to make some changes in life that are likely to result in improved mental health, improved quality of life, and general well-being; you came to the right place! My focus Core Philosophy: Throughout my clinical journey, my clinical focus has remained grounded in trauma-informed, collaborative care centered on genuine connection and supporting clients through key pivotal moments in their lives. I have worked in settings such as outpatient community mental health in person and telehealth provider for past three years. My approach My approach in counseling is in general to look at the person as a whole; not as their symptoms of problems. I use holistic, solution-focused, and trauma-informed models to engage client's in the counseling process and achieve their goals. I have been trained in trauma-informed approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. My communication style My communication style is warm, transparent, and deeply collaborative. I view therapy as a true partnership—a non-judgmental space where safety, genuine human connection, and curiosity take center stage. I blend empathetic validation with a practical, structured approach to help you unpack long-standing patterns and move forward with clarity. My goals for you Collaborative Goal-Setting: We begin by clarifying your specific priorities, ensuring your goals align with your personal values and what you genuinely want to achieve.
